RE: CFML/ASP equivalents

In asp it would just be setting a declaring a var

 
Eample: Dim myString As String

 
I have not really seen any site or book with the chart you are seeking. Pick
up a cheap ASP 3 book.

Does anyone know of a resource that shows the ASP equivalents for CFML?
Like what is the ASP equivalent for CFPARAM?A chart would be great.I've
Googled it but haven't found anything.

Thanks,

I've got a cheap ASP book but the index is poor and I'm wasting a lot of time hunting for info.A comparison would be easier/more useful.

Also, I didn't think that the Dim statement really replicates the way a CFPARAM tag sets a default value if the variable is undefined.Won't Dim overwrite the variable if it already exists?These are the kinds of things I'd like to know as a CF developer who occasionally needs to work with ASP.Maybe I just need to make a web site ASP for CF Developers...

I just tested this :


 testVar = Hello World

 Dim testVar

 response.write testVar


and it still wrote out the value

There really isn't anything in asp that works like CFPARAM.

RE: CFML/ASP equivalents

2004-02-17 Thread Brad Roberts
I've ran into situations where a site like this would be very valuable.

It would be great to take it a step further, with PHP comparisons as well.
You could deal with each task (CF tag) individually, as well as compare
small sample applications that demonstrated how things works together.

I could see this helping CF, ASP,  PHP developers who are curious about how
do do something in one of the other languages.

I think the site would be easy to create if it were a community based, where
developers could contribute how you might handle tasks in each language.
I'm sure best practices would be something to consider as well, since
different people will have their own opinions on how to best accomplish a
task.

Just some thoughts,

Brad
